INSPIRATION STATION #79 - REMEMBRANCE

I hope you are inspired by our image this month at Inspiration Station.  It seems at this moment in the world we need to remember more than ever.  

I started off my card by using a stencil by Tracy Evans Boutique Designs and then added some Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide and some Black Soot.  I added some extra stamping with words by Alison Bomber.  The poppies are an old stamp by Tracy and I stamped them onto some tissue paper and coloured them in on the reverse side.  This enabled them to be vivid against that muted background.  The extra sentiment is also from Alison Bomber at Paperartsy.  

This card could also be used as a sympathy card.

ADDICTED TO STAMPS AND MORE #479 ANY OCCASION

Welcome back to Addicted to Stamps and More and our challenge of Any Occasion.

Sadly I recently had to send a Sympathy card and wanted something nice and gentle.  This stamp by Alison Bomber was just perfect.  I masked off the square in the middle and added three shades of Distress Ink.  I simply stamped the seed head and the word peace from Alison's set EAB41 from Paper Artsy.
